Ostensibly, Carman has three elevators: two slow people-movers right past the security desk, and one freight elevator, if you’re willing to climb steps and walk through empty, circuitous, vaguely-menacing hallways. Of course, this hasn’t been the reality for the past few days—nearly a week. Instead, there has been only one operational elevator in a building housing […]

Carman: land of petty elevator disputes, vomit-stained carpets, vandalized bulletin boards, and a deeply-entrenched loneliness matched only by the vast plains of middle America. Behold the beauty and the desolation of the most “social” first-year dorm, established before Carmanites have even taken their first final. And just remember: it honestly never gets any better.

Earlier today, Carman Residence Hall Director Aaron Hukari sent an email to residents of the building mentioning a recent increase in vandalism within the dorm.

Carman may be known for its athletes, alcohol-stained carpeting, and the fact that the bedboards can be removed and placed across two chairs to create beer pong tables, but one freshman is doing it better with his daringly decorated dorm.  Filled with K-pop tchotchkes, this poppin’ room was calling for a RoomHop feature. We sent […]

Now officially on winter break, Daily Editor and Carmanite Rachel Deal reflects on her first semester spent in Carman. On move-in day, it takes three tries to unlock the door to my “suite.” The room isn’t as bad as she thought it would be, my mom says, but she grimaces when she looks into the […]

Spotted in Carman last night. Though perhaps not as destructive/horrifying as last year’s ceiling incidents, who knows what our decrepit dorms have in store for us next! This was sent into us with the following message: “I don’t know what just fell from the ceiling in the Carmine lobby, but it’s disgusting” *Carmine* ……ew

Facelift, Please

It’s about time that one of Columbia’s ugliest buildings had some work done on its exterior. According to a cedilla-containing email sent to Carman residents: Please be advised that, beginning tomorrow, Wednesday, February 12th [sic], an overhead structure will be put up over the entrance to Carman Hall. This is in preparation for work that will […]

Following the renovation of JJ’s Place, Columbia Housing has been at it again. Bwog’s urban horticulturalist, Sarah T., ventures out to Carman’s basement  for a leafy surprise. After a wild night at the Heights, you stumble back into Carman and utter “wassup” to the security guard in the soberest voice you can muster. But wait! […]

It’s been hard to ignore the onslaught of sex-related tips we’ve received lately, so please consider this a PSA: stop being so immature! Seriously, you guys, just cut it out. Because we at Bwog think potty humor, euphemistic headlines, and double-entendre-ridden tags are totally juvenile and not funny. At all. In fact, we didn’t even […]

The long-awaited fitness room in Carman is complete and opened under the radar and ahead of schedule, and Bwog was on the scene to give a quick tour. The room itself is small, probably no larger than 300 square feet and, for the time being, there seems to be quite a bit of empty space […]
